There is no sound when playing music via Bluetooth connection between Civic and phone because the call volume on the phone is not turned on, the volume on the navigation system is not enabled, or the media audio is not turned off. The specific details are as follows: Call volume not turned on: For Android phones, it may be that the media volume on the phone is not turned on. While playing music, press the volume button on the phone to adjust the media volume to the maximum, then adjust the volume in the car accordingly. Navigation system volume not enabled: If the volume on the navigation system is not enabled, there will be no sound when playing music. Simply turn it on. Media audio not turned off: If the media audio on the phone is not turned off, it may cause signal interference with the Bluetooth function.
Last time I encountered the same issue with no sound when playing music via Bluetooth on my Civic, and it took me a while to figure out the problem. First, I checked if both the phone and car system volumes were turned down to the lowest, only to find that the car volume buttons had been muted by my kid. Then, I went to the phone’s Bluetooth settings to confirm if media audio was authorized—turns out I forgot to check the box. Next, I tested other music apps and found only some of them produced sound, which turned out to be a software compatibility issue. Finally, I tested with a friend’s identical phone, and the Bluetooth connection worked fine, revealing that my own phone’s outdated system caused a Bluetooth protocol version mismatch. These small details can all lead to Bluetooth music failure, so I recommend troubleshooting step by step from the simplest checks.
